It is to provide cool air inside the helmet. Since all of your blood flows through your brain, this helps cool the entire body while they are driving for hours in cars that reach in excess of 140 degrees.

It keeps everyone from becoming a hot head...lol. But as you can tell , there may be some malfunctions to some of those silver tubes. They should just save there money for Bristol and Martinsville.

Fresh air to keep the driver cool, also to keep their brain from overheating, turning to mush and becoming an F1 driver.

I'm not sure... maybe it is like headphones or something? I know the driver communicates with the crew, maybe that's what it's for.
